Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang says Arsenal are excited to welcome Nicolas Pepe to the club.

The Lille winger is expected to complete an £72m switch to the Gunners by this weekend.

And the Gabon international can't wait to play alongside the exciting Pepe.

Aubameyang told beIN SPORTS: "Play with Pepe? Of course, when there are players who have to sign in clubs like Arsenal, it's nice to receive them.

"I hope he will sign as soon as possible. We're waiting for that."
